Escaping the Year-End Funk: How to Reset and Honor Your Promises

Episode 102

Thursday, October 31, 2024 • Duration 13:49

As we approach the end of the year, it's easy to get caught up in the pressure to tick off those big, tangible goals. And let’s be real—if you’re anything like me, that pressure can quickly turn into a guilt spiral when we realize we haven’t achieved everything we set out to. But what if we’re measuring our progress all wrong?

In this episode, I'm diving into the most powerful question I’ve been asking myself to avoid that year-end spiral.

We’ll talk about what it really means to honor your commitments, why showing up for yourself matters as much as showing up for others, and how to reset and realign your goals without all the self-criticism.

Plus, I’ll share some of my own end-of-year reflections—both the wins and where I’ve fallen short—and how I’m giving myself grace while still holding myself accountable. Trust me, this conversation is all about real talk, gentle reminders, and finding a sense of pride in the promises we do keep. So, if you’re ready to end the year feeling more aligned and less stressed, hit play!

Ever sat in a meeting biting your tongue because someone once told you that you were "too aggressive" or "too direct"? Or maybe you're holding back brilliant ideas because you don't want to be labeled as "too much"?

Feedback: Should You Accept or Reject It?

Episode 100

Tuesday, October 22, 2024 • Duration 24:24

Ever feel like you're drowning in feedback that feels more like shade than constructive criticism? Today, I'm breaking down my four-step filtering process that helps you decide whether to take that feedback to heart or let it go. Think of it like those Instagram filters we love – you can use feedback to enhance your path or let it distort your success.

In this episode, I'm keeping it real about navigating workplace feedback without losing yourself in the process. I'll show you how to spot the difference between feedback that enhances your path and feedback that might be rooted in bias.

You'll learn:

How to evaluate feedback based on the source and their motives
Why vague feedback terms might be code for bias
When to take patterns seriously and when to question them
The art of seeking clarity without getting defensive
How to handle feedback that doesn't align with your authentic self

Plus, I'm sharing a personal story about how I had to check my ego when my manager told me I lacked empathy (spoiler alert: she was right, y'all!).

Whether you're climbing the corporate ladder or building your own empire, this episode will give you the tools to filter feedback. And it’s your playbook for separating the gold from the garbage. Remember, feedback is a tool, not a directive – and I'm here to help you use it wisely.

Got a workplace struggle you want me to address?
